Ugh, I hate the "play real guitar" things that people say. I own 2 electric guitars, I played real guitar, played in a couple small venues. Never stuck with it. There is a difference between having to learn theory, chords, where all the different notes are for each different tuning and just learning which buttons out of 5 to push when . Years of practice vs an hour of fun.

hehe i went all out and bought my buddies guitar, an amp and all that shit you need for an electric guitar. and i never really played it that much. if you guys want to hear a good guitar player, speak to nox. he sent me an audio clip of him (and some bodies?) playing. it was either his buddies, or he created the sounds for other instruments. i forget what he told me.

60,530,519 gp?

is this the amount of gold transfered to INX from XUO? or the value of items in gold on XUO?

if this is the value of items in gold on xuo that just doesn't seem right. i alone could get that if i sold my stuff...

there were porbably over 100 tubs, each costs 800k. those alone fetches 80 million. i take it you didn't give them their buy cost when doing the count? yes/no 60 million still seems really low, atleast by the economy standards.

and there was loads of money spent on houses!

You are not getting all of your gold transfered, as the shard isn't supposed to be flooded with money, and the amount you get from items doesn't really have to match. I'll(and others with me) be revising the algo, changing the worth you get for items and changing the percentage, the first outputs are just preliminary.

Excellent work, Maka and the rest of the staffiteers. I'm looking forward to playing on a shard with such dedicated staff.

i wish - but if i did i'd hire these guys a developer/scrpiter. hey max ever see stewy? i IM him time to time but he's rarely there.

Go Go Maka-Copter.

Pande, you couldn't expect the buy value to be transfered...

11k on average (probably some have a lot more) sounds reasonable to me, but i'm glad its being refined even more so that it will be most fair for the old XUO players.

[imported_Pande]

true cole, but i would expect a decnt price, judging by the economy, even an ugly tub would sell for minimum 100k... average resale price for a tub was around 400k id say

[imported_Cole]

I think the plan was for things to be transfered into a percentage of their worth. It wouldn't make sense to get market value for everything.

[imported_Pande]

i understand perfectly how its suppose to happen cole;

step 1: all items are converted into gold.
step 2: a % (1-5) of the player's total gold is transfered.

i was talking about the value in step 1...

if we are going to receive 5% of an items value, say a tub, 800k * .05 = 40k before transfer. then we receive 1-5% of that gold, making it only 400-2k for an item that initially cost you 800k. see my point now? at that rate we really receive .05% to .25% of the items original cost.

i do not know if these are the actual values maka is working with, they are only intended to be examples.

So a huge announcement.... about how many days in advance? Its not gonna be like... "Surprize! We're opening today!" is it? because i know a few people who don't check the forums every day.

[imported_Pande]

i've suggested 1 week in advance so people can install UO, and if they are having any trouble they can hopefully get it sorted out before the shard is up.

[imported_Cole]

OK, i see what you're saying Pande.
